Called cain would win GNP round 1...had the opportunity there run out a time in the 1st, 25mins is a REAL LONG time to keep on fighting @ 239-240lbs  ... especially after gassing within the first 10mins, Junior showed alot of Guts and Character to keep going and Cain Kept the constant pressure going long after he had Gassed, good Solid Fight. |

Disappointed to hear Cain won (i fell asleep watching and my recording cut out before the end of the fight like it seems to do every single f&*%ing time!). I see this as a blip for JDS. I don't think Cain is one of these fighter's who's gonna remain as the man to beat for a long stretch. |

That was a fantastic fight.
Even though Cain dominated every round, I will say that Dos Santos is a fucking fighter. Strangely enough, I found that Dos Santos' striking was nowhere near as good as it usually is.
This is just a clear example of what happens when one fighter just brings his A game and the other, while close enough to it, falls short.
The mere fact that this fight went the full five rounds is testament to the fact that both of these guys are powerhouses in their own rights. Both of which came into the fight with only but one loss to their name.
I see a rematch in their future and I think Dos Santos could take back his belt, so as long as he brings his topnotch striking back into the mix.
If Alistair Overeem and Cain do fight next and Cain defeats him, it would be a fair assumption to make in stating that Cain is by far the best heavyweight in the world.

JDS will be rewarded later for his loyalty to the UFC. He was told to take a dive so Dana can better concentrate on the emerging Mexican market. Note the coverage of the Mexican flags in the audience, mouth guards, Dana's ok of the luchador masks, down playing of the 'brown stain' tattoo, etc. The next TUF is in Mexico and they're trying to fill it 100% with Mexican fighters. Junior never lifted his hands above his waist for fucks sake.
Corruption in fighting has been going on forever and the UFC is no different. Some of the Pride fights were down right comical.

Junior never got a chance to reset and implement his own game plan. He got completely taken out of his element. I thought he'd have been better prepared for Cain's wrestling. I didn't pick a favorite for this but would have been more inclined to pick Junior if i had.
There were no surprises with Cain. He did exactly what everyone expected him to do. Set a blistering pace and close the distance and never give junior the space to throw. Problem was because of the hype behind junior very few people thought he'd pull it off.
A couple of things in Juniors favor if and when they meet again.
He can weather Cain's strikes. His corner was screaming at him to keep his hands up but Junior had nothing left and ended up absorbing a majority of Cains strikes. The plus point - Cain couldn't KO him despite throwing and connecting with some nasty punches and kicks. Junior (after the fight) was more impressed by Cains wrestling than his strikes.
He was able to stand back up every time Cain took him down. Couldnt do much else once he was back on his feet but Cain couldnt hold him down. If he can make Cain pay in the clinch with a variety of attacks it may work in his favor. So far he relies more on his boxing to pull off a win and doesnt mix it up much.
The first time around Junior was able to take Cain out of his gameplan and this time Cain returned the favor.
Junior will probably have to win a couple more before they face off again but there arent any in the HW division that could pose a credible threat for Junior when he works his way back up. Dan Cormier maybe? Overeem will match up with Cain if he survives bigfoot.

I know.. What was I thinking!?! It's not as if Junior Dos Santos has ever beaten Cain in a definitive fashion, say by possibly knocking him out seconds into the first round of a fight. Who knows what will happen.. " 1" |
